COUNTY EXECUTIVE PAUL FARROW STATEMENT ON THE RETIREMENT OF CONGRESSMAN JIM SENSENBRENNER

His passion to serve the people of his district has not waned in his 40 years in Congress. Having had bills signed by six presidents, both Republican and Democrat, that have served during his tenure says so much about his ability to get things done in the best interest of our country.
